The combination of spectral and spatial information is known as a suitable way to improve the accuracy of hyperspectral image classification. In this paper, we propose a spectral-spatial hyperspectral image classification approach composed of the following stages. Initially, the support vector machine (SVM) is applied to obtain the initial classification map. Then, we present a new index called the homogeneity order and, using that with K-nearest neighbors, we select some pixels in feature space. The extracted pixels are considered as markers for Minimum Spanning Forest (MSF) construction. The class assignment to the markers is done using the initial classification map results. In the final stage, MSF is applied to these markers, and a spectral-spatial classification map is obtained. Experiments performed on several real hyperspectral images demonstrate that the classification accuracies obtained by the proposed scheme are improved when compared to MSF-based spectral-spatial classification approaches.

Compared with traditional optical and multispectral remote sensing images, hyperspectral images have hundreds of bands that can provide the possibility of fine classification of the earth’s surface. At the same time, a hyperspectral image is an image that coexists with the spatial and spectral. It has become a hot research topic to combine the spatial spectrum information of the image to classify hyperspectral features. Based on the idea of spatial–spectral classification, this paper proposes a novel hyperspectral image classification method based on a segment forest (SF). Firstly, the first principal component of the image was extracted by the process of principal component analysis (PCA) data dimension reduction, and the data constructed the segment forest after dimension reduction to extract the non-local prior spatial information of the image. Secondly, the images’ initial classification results and probability distribution were obtained using support vector machine (SVM), and the spectral information of the images was extracted. Finally, the segment forest constructed above is used to optimize the initial classification results and obtain the final classification results. In this paper, three domestic and foreign public data sets were selected to verify the segment forest classification. SF effectively improved the classification accuracy of SVM, and the overall accuracy of Salinas was enhanced by 11.16%, WHU-Hi-HongHu by 15.89%, and XiongAn by 19.56%. Then, it was compared with six decision-level improved space spectrum classification methods, including guided filtering (GF), Markov random field (MRF), random walk (RW), minimum spanning tree (MST), MST+, and segment tree (ST). The results show that the segment forest-based hyperspectral image classification improves accuracy and efficiency compared with other algorithms, proving the algorithm’s effectiveness.

Active Learning (AL) for Hyperspectral Image Classification (HSIC) has been extensively studied. However, the traditional AL methods do not consider randomness among the existing and new samples. Secondly, very limited AL research has been carried out on joint spectral–spatial information. Thirdly, a minor but still worth mentioning factor is the stopping criteria. Therefore, this study caters to all these issues using a spatial prior Fuzziness concept coupled with Multinomial Logistic Regression via a Splitting and Augmented Lagrangian (MLR-LORSAL) classifier with dual stopping criteria. This work further compares several sample selection methods with the diverse nature of classifiers i.e., probabilistic and non-probabilistic. The sample selection methods include Breaking Ties (BT), Mutual Information (MI) and Modified Breaking Ties (MBT). The comparative classifiers include Support Vector Machine (SVM), Extreme Learning Machine (ELM), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) and Ensemble Learning (EL). The experimental results on three benchmark hyperspectral datasets reveal that the proposed pipeline significantly increases the classification accuracy and generalization performance. To further validate the performance, several statistical tests are also considered such as Precision, Recall and F1-Score.

Hyperspectral image classification has been acknowledged as the fundamental and challenging task of hyperspectral data processing. The abundance of spectral and spatial information has provided great opportunities to effectively characterize and identify ground materials. In this paper, we propose a spectral and spatial classification framework for hyperspectral images based on Random Multi-Graphs (RMGs). The RMG is a graph-based ensemble learning method, which is rarely considered in hyperspectral image classification. It is empirically verified that the semi-supervised RMG deals well with small sample setting problems. This kind of problem is very common in hyperspectral image applications. In the proposed method, spatial features are extracted based on linear prediction error analysis and local binary patterns; spatial features and spectral features are then stacked into high dimensional vectors. The high dimensional vectors are fed into the RMG for classification. By randomly selecting a subset of features to create a graph, the proposed method can achieve excellent classification performance. The experiments on three real hyperspectral datasets have demonstrated that the proposed method exhibits better performance than several closely related methods.

Hyperspectral Image (HSI) processing is the new advancement in image / signal processing field. The growth over the years is appreciable. The main reason behind the successful growth of the Hyperspectral imaging field is due to the enormous amount of spectral and spatial information that the imagery contains. The spectral band that the HSI which contains is also more in number. When an image is captured through the HSI cameras, it contains around 200-250 images of the same scene. Nowadays HSI is used extensively in the fields of environmental monitoring, Crop-Field monitoring, Classification, Identification, Remote sensing applications, Surveillance etc. The spectral and spatial information content present in Hyperspectral images are with high resolutions.Hyperspectral imaging has shown significant growth and widely used in most of the remote sensing applications due to its presence of information of a scene over hundreds of contiguous bands In. Hyperspectral Image Classification of materials is the critical application of HSI using Hyperspectral sensors. It collects hundreds of spectrum channels, where each channel consists of a sharp point of Electromagnetic Spectrum. The paper mainly focuses on Deep Learning techniques such as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Support Vector machines (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) for the accuracy in classification. Finally in the summary the current state-of-the-art scheme, a critical discussion after reviewing the research work by other professionals and organizing it into review-based paper, also implying about the present status on classification accuracy using neural networks is carried out.
